No, I think you’re a bad ally because you’re willing to throw all your other causes and people under the bus if one policy you support isn’t supported by the potential nominee. You could fight for a democratic majority and continuing to fight for trans people’s rights instead of abandoning everyone.
This is sociopathic, Johnathan. The fact that you’re conflating me defending the most vulnerable people in this country because it is the right thing to do, and demanding that the party I vote for do the same, with “throwing people under the bus” showcases your twisted, perverse logic
“You won’t vote for a slimy poor-hating transphobic ghoul, you’re a bad ally” yeah man YOUR allies are already in power 🤷♂️
Trans people are certainly vulnerable and should be defended. But calling them the most vulnerable ignores the 15m+ “illegal” immigrants (200k+ of which have been deported this year), 770k+ homeless people, 47m+ people experiencing food insecurity, 27m+ people without health insurance, etc.
so which group off that list are you willing to bargain away next
None, which is why I’ll support a primary candidate who supports them. You’ve chosen the position that you’re willing to bargain away those groups if trans rights aren’t met by the eventual nominee. So, don’t act like you’re better than me. You’re mad at me for the same thing you’re willing to do.
Bullshit! to get a "D" in the white house we know you'll trade trans people so who's next?
You’re right. Instead of electing a shitty “D”, let’s not vote and keep Republicans in power who are already trading away all people except rich, white, MAGA loyalists.
how is your cognitive dissonance so powerful? You made a list of vulnerable people, and Newsom has directly negatively impacted all of them in CA. You think the answer to the homeless is to vote for a guy who just did an encampment bulldoze photo op? he threw away his constituents photo albums ffs
if the dems run him as the candidate, the party is irredeemable and not deserving of anyone's vote. AND THEY WILL LOSE In this way, supporting Gavin Newsom is an endorsement of Trump for a third term
For the millionth time, I’m not supporting or endorsing Newsom. If he’s the only remaining candidate after the primary, there isn’t much left to endorse. The choice is made. Yeah, dems will probably lose in that scenario. But I’m willing to fight by voting against republican cruelty. You’re not.
you posted a list of his accomplishments Johnny
I never said he’s a good candidate. I’ve said he’s better than ANY Republican option. Also, he’s helped with: - Medi-Cal expansion - Making Cali and LGBTQ+ sanctuary state - Prop 1, Homekey, and CARE courts - Rideshare Driver Unionization - Death penalty moratorium You only select the bad.
Would you prefer republicans who don’t support helping any of those marginalized communities? Or would you accept incremental progress while continuing to fight? Or is your ultimatum “all or nothing right now”?
my "ultimatum" is that I will not, ever, under any circumstances, vote for Gavin Newsom. the fact that you support him shows exactly what kind of person you are. It's wild to me that you're torching all your credibility for a freak who will never be president while pretending to be a progressive
That’ll show ‘em!
show who? the homeless you don't care about, or the transpeople you don't care about, or the immigrants you don't care about? What does endorsing this freak "show 'em"
